TortoiseSVN is not involved. The retry loop is within the subversion
library, so you should follow this up on the subversion users mailing
list. But as it is a known bug in Windows 7 and with some
un-cooperative AV programs I would not expect to see any action. Also,
the working copy model is changing completely in SVN 1.7 and there
should be a lot less of the tiny file operations which are the main
trigger for this problem.
